What a waste of time and energy. My husband and I got caught up in this bait and switch. We received a "Grand Prize winner" mailing for 6 free months, 2 hours each of personal training, and 10 free passes for friends. We went to the gym in our gear ready to claim our prize and work out. After our gym tour we were told we would have to sign up for 12 or 18 months in order to gain our grand prize. We would need to pay $75 or $49 a month each (month-to-month or for 12 months), plus and upfront $149 each for joining. When we declined, we were offered a 3-day free trial (also super generous, given we can get a 7-day free trial just by visiting their website). Be clear, we expected some catch (we are not that naive), but just not such a jarring expense, given there was no asterisks or fine print on the mailer. So "Grand Prize Winners" out there, do the math and be prepared to pay $1000 - $1500 for your "grand" prize (or more - our offer was lower because we are a couple - what a deal!). Or, do like we are doing by reporting Sweat Fitness to the Better Business Bureau www.easternpa.bbb (dot) org and the Pennsylvania State Attorney General for Consumer Protection services (www.attorneygeneral.gov/complaints.aspx?id=451). At least you'll feel like a real winner for helping others. ...read more

My partner and I joined this gym sometime last fall in order to get in shape over the winter. There was nothing special about the gym but it worked for what we needed it for, to use the treadmills, ellipticals, etc. The problem occurred when I tried to quit! When I called the person informed me that I had signed a contract and that i would be required to pay for two more months. When we signed up the only thing we signed was what we thought was the credit card signature. I never signed anything at all! And NO ONE told us we were committing to anything other than paying a month to month fee of 65$ ...read more
